Tick Tock, Tim

[Verse 1]
Keys in the drawer
Cash all counted
End-of-day forms
Every box checked
Lights humming low
Manager’s waiting
We’re all by the door
Except one desk left
[Chorus]
Tick tock
Tim
Where you at
Where you been?
We can’t lock up till you walk in (hey!)
Clock on the wall shouting
“Hurry him”
We’re stuck here
Stuck here
Stuck here
Tick tock
Tim
[Verse 2]
You said “five mins”
That was at four-thirteen
Now it’s past close
We’re a hostage team
Lobby’s all clean
Pens in a perfect line
But your last login
Holding up closing time
[Chorus]
Tick tock
Tim
Where you at
Where you been?
We can’t lock up till you walk in (oh yeah)
Clock on the wall shouting
“Hurry him”
We’re stuck here
Stuck here
Stuck here
Tick tock
Tim
[Bridge]
[Handclaps
Drums drop to toms]
Maybe you’re saving the world again
Or just lost your keys by the break room sink
We’re telling jokes
Running out of ink
Come on
Man
Swipe that badge
Blink that screen
[Chorus]
Tick tock
Tim
Where you at
Where you been?
We can’t lock up till you walk in (hey, Tim!)
Clock on the wall shouting
“Hurry him”
We’re stuck here
Stuck here
Stuck here
Tick tock
Tim
Tick tock
Tim

Upbeat, slightly funky pop-rock with tight drums, playful bass, and choppy rhythm guitar. Verses stay talky and dry, chorus pops with stacked gang vocals on the hook and a bright synth doubling the melody. Short bridge strips to claps and vocal before a final, shout-along chorus; male vocals with a wink-in-the-voice attitude.
